10 Things You Can Do To Fight Global Climate Change

Thanks to our friends at the Environmental Defense Fund, please follow these easy steps to fight global climate change:

1. Recycle and buy minimally packaged goods as much as possible.

2. Wash clothes in cold or warm water; not hot.

3. Install low-flow shower heads (Home Depot and Lowe's have them) to use less water.

4. Run the dishwasher only when it's full and don't use heat cycle to dry dishes.

5. Replace standard lights bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs.

6. Plug air leaks in windows and doors to increase energy (heating and air conditioning) efficiency.

7. Replace old appliances with energy-efficient models.

8. Walk, bike, carpool, or use public transportation whenever possible.

9. Adjust your thermostat -- lower in the winter; higher in the summer.

10. Share these simple steps with friends, family, classmates, and your community to increase awareness!
